Rondinella is a required grape in Valpolicella DOC, used alongside Corvina and/or Corvinone under the denomination’s vineyard rules.
A required share gives the grape a clear blending role.
Valpolicella DOC requires Rondinella for 5–30% of its vineyard blend. It sits alongside Corvina and/or Corvinone, with other permitted grapes subject to further limits. In this named wine, Rondinella is a required component rather than the sole variety; the range leaves room for producers to use different permitted proportions.
The Valpolicella example is rooted in its delimited production area in the province of Verona. The specification describes a landscape of hills and valleys and distinguishes additional geographic wording such as Classico from the denomination as a whole.
